Binomial transform of A048696. Second binomial transform of A164587. Inverse binomial transform of A164299.

This sequence is part of a class of sequences defined by the recurrence a(n,m) = 2*(m+1)*a(n-1,m) - ((m+1)^2 - 2)*a(n-2,m) with a(0) = 1 and a(1) = m+9. The generating function is Sum_{n>=0} a(n,m)*x^n = (1 - (m-7)*x)/(1 - 2*(m+1)*x + ((m+1)^2 - 2)*x^2) and has a series expansion in terms of Pell-Lucas numbers defined by a(n, m) = (1/2)*Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)*m^(n-k)*(5*Q(k) + 4*Q(k-1)). - G.

Formula

a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2) for n > 1; a(0)=1, a(1)=10.

G.f.: (1+6*x)/(1-4*x+2*x^2).

E.g.f.: (cosh(sqrt(2)*x) + 4*sqrt(2)*sinh(sqrt(2)*x))*exp(2*x). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 12 2017

From G. C. Greubel, Mar 12 2021: (Start)

a(n) = A056236(n) + 8*A007070(n-1).

a(n) = (1/2)*Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k)*(5*Q(k) + 4*Q(k-1)), where Q(n) = Pell-Lucas(n) = A002203(n). (End)
